In the Classroom
Our Busy Days...
This week the Eaglets had lessons on place value using the Golden Beads work, skip counting using Bead Chains and the third years were introduced to The Pythagoras Board for multiplying numbers.
We have been exploring our outdoor area in search of animal tracks as well as entrances to the Subnivean Zone in preparation for Exhibition next month!
Students have been continuing to work through their Waseca packets both independently and in small groups. We have a new poem up this week in honor of Martin Luther King Jr. which the students have been copying for their poetry book.
In Reader's Workshop we have been learning about Martin Luther King Jr. as well as the Subnivean Zone. We have been focusing on identifying facts within informational text. Students have also had the opportunity to read with their reading buddies this week, which is always something they enjoy.
On Friday mornings, we have been engaged in project work to include needle felting. The children are really enjoying the opportunity to create objects found in nature with wool roving.
